An Evening with Sebastian Junger at the Rockport Opera House

The Rockport Library Foundation is excited to welcome award-winning journalist, director, and best-selling author Sebastian Junger for a talk at the Rockport Opera House on Friday, September 19, at 6:30 p.m.

Known for riveting and emotionally compelling books like The Perfect Storm, War, and Tribe, Junger will present his latest book, In My Time of Dying. His near-fatal health emergency lead to this powerful reflection on death—and what might follow. The book is part medical drama, part searing autobiography, and part rational inquiry into the ultimate unknowable mystery.

Barnswallow Books will offer a selection of Junger’s books for sale and signing at the event following the presentation. The event is free and open to the public, but seating is limited.

This co-presentation is generously supported by The Rockport Library Foundation, a non-profit whose mission aims to sustain a legacy of sharing worlds of experience and information within our community. Learn more about The Foundation at rockportlibraryfoundation.org.
